Die Rechte und die autoritären Aspirationen mancher Politiker und Regierenden machen uns wieder Angst—die Geschichte darf sich doch nicht wiederholen. Die Linken müssen sich neu aufstellen, müssen kämpfen, damit es in unseren globalisierten Gesellschaften ein Gleichgewicht der verschiedenen Kräfte und Denkweisen gibt. Dabei dürfen sie ihre Wurzeln nicht vergessen—erwachsen aus der Dialektik der Aufklärung besitzen die Linken die stärkste Waffe, die sie progressiv einsetzen können: die Utopie. Nur mit einer Utopie im Gepäck kann die Linke getrost in die Zukunft schauen.

Europe is a place of free movement among nations—or is it? The Schengen area, established in 1985 and today encompassing twenty-nine European countries, allows people, goods, and capital to cross borders without restraint. Schengen transformed European life, advancing both a democratic project of transnational citizenship and a neoliberal project of international free trade. But the right of free movement always excluded non-Europeans, especially migrants of color from former colonies of the Schengen states.

Christian 9.’s historie er en lang og usandsynlig en af slagsen. Født som fattig prins i Tyskland var hans vej til den danske trone ikke på forhånd givet. Han tilhørte en fjern sidelinje i det danske kongehus, men da Frederik 7. døde uden at efterlade sig nogen arvinger, blev kronen tildelt Prins Christian af Glücksborg. Sammen med sin elskede dronning Louise satte Christian 9. eftertrykkelige fodspor i hele Europa ved at gifte sine seks børn ind i de toneangivende kongelige og kejserlige familier.

Auf dem Campus wurde Franca Bauernfeind als „Nazi-Schlampe“ beschimpft und ihre Wahlplakate wurden beschmiert. Aber trotz oder gerade aufgrund ihrer liberal-konservativen Positionen gewann sie die Wahl zum Studierendenrat der Universität Erfurt. Anhand von ihren Erfahrungen gibt sie einen tiefen Einblick in die (gesellschafts-)politischen Mechanismen des Hochschulbetriebs: Wer sich an der Universität nicht im linken und oftmals linksextremen Meinungskorridor bewegt, wird diffamiert und ausgegrenzt.

Karl Marx, coauthor of the revolutionary text The Communist Manifesto, grew up in a Christian family, and his early writings showed belief in a Christian worldview.
